YES!!!BOOK [14 Sep 2006|12:56am]
"THE LAST POSSIBLE DEED IS THAT WHICH DEFINES PERCEPTION ITSELF, AN INVISIBLE GOLDEN CORD THAT CONNECTS US: ILLEGAL DANCING IN THE COUTHOUSE CORRIDORS. IF I WERE TO KISS YOU HERE THEY'D CALL IT AN ACT OF TERRORISM--SO LET'S TAKE OUR PISTOLS TO BED AND WAKE UP THE CITY AT MIDNIGHT LIKE DRUNKEN BANDITS CELEBRATING WITH A FUSILLADE, THE MESSAGE OF THE TASTE OF CHAOS."

sorry about the capitialization but reading that paragraph made me feel just that triumphant. am i the last person on earth to read T.A.Z.?

"WEIRD DANCING IN ALL-NIGHT computer-banking lobbies. Unauthorized pyrotechnic displays. Land-art, earthworks as bizarre alien artifacts strewn in State Parks. Burglarize houses but instead of stealing, leave Poetic-Terrorist objects. Kidnap someone & make them happy. Pick someone at random & convince them they're the heir to an enormous, useless and amazing fortune--say 5000 square miles of Antartica, or an aging circus elephant, or an orphanage in Bombay, or a collection of alchemical mss. Later they will come to realize that for a few moments they believed in something extraordinary, and will perhaps be driven as a result to seek out some more intense mode of existance.
Bolt up brass commemorative plaques in places (public of private) where you have experienced a revelation or had a particularly fulfilling sexual experience, etc.
Go naked for a sign.
Organize a strike in your school or workplace on the grounds that it does not satisfy your need for indolence and spiritual beauty.
Grafitti art loaned some grace to ugly subways and rigid public monuments--PT art can also be created for public places: poems scrawled in courthouse lavatories, small fetishes abandoned in parks and resturants, xerox-art under windshield wipers of parked cars, big character slogans pasted on playground walls, anonymous letters mailed to random chosen recipients (mail fraud), pirate radio transmissions, wet cement...
The audience reaction or aesthetic shock produced by PT ought to be at least as strong as the emotion of terror--powerful disgust, sexual arousal, superstitious awe, sudden intuitive breakthrough, dada-esque angst--no matter whether the PT is aimed at one person or many, no matter whether it is "signed" or anonymous, if it does not change someone's life (aside from the artist) it fails.
PT is an act in a Theatre of Cruelty which has no stage, no rows of seats, no tickets, and no walls. In order to work at all, PT must categorically be divorced from all conventional structures for art consumption (galleries, publications, media). Even the guerilla situationist tactics of street theater are perhaps too well known and expected now."
